ROCKY 4 *FIRST TIME WATCHING* 🥊❤️‍🔥 MOVIE REACTION and REVIEW

Phil and Kate react to the action packed and at times strangely sci-fi 1985 film, "Rocky 4" 🥊
After reclaiming the boxing championship title, Rocky Balboa (Sylvester Stallone) plans to retire and live with his wife, Adrian (Talia Shire). However, during an exhibition match, Rocky's friend Apollo Creed (Carl Weathers) is mercilessly beaten to death by hulking Russian newcomer Ivan Drago (Dolph Lundgren).

Rest in peace Carl Weathers legend 🙏🕊️

[@LilBrujoFH18]

the sad thing over 100 boxers dies in the ring every year. so i will always respect boxers who step in the ring

"This is your favorite? This is your favorite?" lol

[@formatique_arschloch]

R.I.P. Carl Weathers.

[@alanndrake2619]

I was 15 when this came out and Dolph Lundgren looked like he stepped off Mt. Olympus. His personal real life story is incredible if you haven’t looked him up.

[@jameslawson2663]

You’ve got to remember this is at the height of the Cold War. It was literally USA vs USSR

[@KingCobra3849]

Multiple fighters have died in the boxing ring so its alot more common than you guys think. Great reaction!

[@Nigel_A15]

As a kid, Rocky IV was my favorite. Drago was so scary. I didn't have the patience for the first couple of Rockys lol. As an adult, I appreciated 1 & 2 a lot more and while 4 has its moments, it is definitely a far different tone. The Director's cut is better.

[@longfootbuddy]

if he dies, he dies.. if he cries, he cries.. if he eats fries, he eats fries.. you get the point

[@stevejoshua9536]

Even to this very day, I'm still waiting to see Drago VS Clubber Lang.

[@jameslawson2663]

Fighters dying in the ring has happened multiple times

[@FreddyKurganNimmo]

They changed the music because it wasn't Bill Conti scoring this movie, it was Vince DiCola. And yes, "No Easy Way Out" by Robert Tepper debuted in this movie, although it was written about a divorce.

As a child I skipped the third film unknowingly, never saw the bromance with Apollo and Rocky so I didn't know what to think about Apollo dying. I was still disturbed by it though and thought Rocky was too invested in avenging the death of Apollo who antagonized him the whole second film.

"I think you should do reactions to all the Rocky and Creed movies. It's a journey of a character that someone deserves to see in its entirety, especially after Rocky 5. First Blood is exceptional, the second and third ones are like Rocky 3 and 4 (probably Stallone didn't give much importance to the scripts), but Rambo 4 is truly incredible. It reflected like Rocky 6, released in 2008 and 2006 respectively, and understood he's mistakes. Finally, I would like to add that one of Stallone's movie that nobody has ever reacted to is Lock Up in 1988. An excellent film, much better than Over the Top or Cobra. It would be nice to see that too!"

[@lucianoa31]

Over the Top is another great movie

[@micjoseph6250]

that car is no Pontiac, that is a Lamborghini

[@terminallumbago6465]

Boxers dying in the ring is more common than you may think.

[@DianeHostetler]

There are several different filming locations for Rocky IV including Jackson, Wyoming, and Grand Teton National Park.

Carl has received his eye of the tiger

Stallone did a Rocky IV director's cut. It was suppose to come out two years ago. But to this day I've never seen it any where. He on youtube talked about really regretting having the robot in the movie. So he cut all scenes with the robot in his director's cut. Using unused footage he shot too.
